Off-duty pilot charged with 83 counts of attempted murder for allegedly trying to shut off engines on Alaska Airlines flight_我的网站
A | An off-duty pilot is charged with 83 counts of attempted murder after he allegedly tried to shut off the engines by pulling the fire extinguisher handles on an Alaska Airlines flight, according to officials.The plane was scheduled to fly from Everett, Washington, to San Francisco before it diverted late Sunday to Portland after a "credible security threat related to an authorized occupant in the flight deck jump seat," the airline confirmed to ABC News.The suspect allegedly tried to pull the fire extinguisher handles on the engines, preliminary information obtained by investigators indicated, according to a federal official briefed on the probe. The suspect was overwhelmed by flight crew and subdued and then handcuffed to a seat, the federal official told ABC News.The suspect, Joseph David Emerson, was taken into custody, the Port of Portland confirmed. Emerson is charged with 83 counts of attempted murder, according to the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office. He is also facing 83 counts of reckless endangerment, a misdemeanor, and one felony count of endangering an aircraft.The suspect was en route to San Francisco, where he was scheduled to be on a flight crew of a 737, the official said.Alaska Airlines said the off-duty pilot was sitting in the flight deck jump seat -- which is in the cockpit -- and "unsuccessfully attempted to disrupt the operation of the engines."The captain and first officer "quickly responded," Alaska said, adding engine power was not lost and the crew secured the aircraft without incident.There were 80 passengers and four crew members on the flight, according to Alaska.Passenger Aubrey Gavello told ABC News, "We didn't know anything was happening until the flight attendant got on the loudspeaker and made an announcement that there was an emergency situation and the plane needed to land immediately. … About 15 minutes later, she got back on and said that there was a medical emergency."Passenger Alex Wood said the pilot announced that "there was a disturbance in the cockpit."Gavello said she heard a flight attendant tell the suspect, "We're going to be fine, it's OK, we'll get you off the plane.""So I really thought it was a serious medical emergency," she said.Wood added, "It was very professional, handled very calmly, and we didn't really know what was going on until we landed."Once the plane landed, Wood said police went to the back of the plane and escorted a handcuffed man off the plane. He noted that the suspect "was wearing a lanyard, a sweater. Looked like an airline employee."Gavello said, "After we did land and the gentleman was escorted off, the flight attendant got back on the speaker and said, plain and simple, 'He had a mental breakdown. We needed to get him off the plane immediately.'"The Federal Aviation Administration said in a statement to carriers that the incident is "not connected in any way shape or form to current world events."The event is being investigated by law enforcement, the airline said. The FBI confirmed it is looking into the incident and "can assure the traveling public there is no continuing threat related to this incident."Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg said in a statement, "I am grateful for the professional flight crew and air traffic controllers who stepped up to guide this plane safely to Portland. FAA supports law enforcement in their response and will be focused on any safety considerations for the future that emerge from investigations."The pilots union Air Line Pilots Association, International in a statement praised the pilots and crew who safely landed the plane and said it's fully cooperating with authorities.The union added, "The airline pilot profession in North America is one of the most highly vetted and scrutinized careers, and for good reason. For decades, the United States has pioneered a proactive approach to improving aviation safety and maintaining a healthy work environment for pilots. In addition, U.S. pilots are continuously evaluated throughout their careers through training, medical exams, crew resource management, and programs such as the Line Operations Safety Audit, as well as by the airline and during random flight checks by the Federal Aviation Administration."。 转自公众号：新西兰中文先驱Chinese_Herald 创纪录 Advertise with us 新西兰首位华人绿党议员诞生 同届国会中 有3名华人议员 史无前例 据RNZ记者Duoya Lu报道，昨天，南西（Lawrence Xu-Nan）在国会宣誓就任，成为第一位在国会中代表绿党的华人议员。 上个月，绿党国会议员Fa'anānā Efeso Collins在奥克兰参加慈善跑步活动时不幸身故，南西作为绿党的排名议员进入国会。 据报道，南西在中国天津出生，祖籍山东，在新西兰生活了25年，拥有古代历史学（专攻埃及学）博士学位。 2017年，南西加入绿党，于2020年首次参与新西兰大选（党内排名17位），竞选Pakuranga选区的国会议员。2023年，南西参与了Epsom选区的国会议员竞选，党内的排名为16位。 在正式成为绿党国会议员前，他在绿党担任了3年联合政策主管（policy co-convenor），并于2023年7月被选任为绿党的联合党主席（party co-convenor）。 谈到为何加入绿党，他表示是绿党的核心价值观深深吸引了他。
B | "绿党是非常有人情味的政党，是一个非常以人为本的政党，" 他说。"我们把基层和人民放在第一位，把政治放在第二位，我们关心民众，以及我们与大家的关系。" 成为绿党华人国会议员，南西表示他的加入将大大增强绿党党团的多样性。 "绿党看到我所能带来的，作为能说流利中文的华人，我能为（党团）的讨论带来不一样的视角，我能带来不一样的社区。" 作为本届国会反对党的唯一华人议员，南西力图扩大华人在议会中的发言权。
C | "我将开始以更好的方式与华社进行沟通，华社部分人可能对绿党不熟悉，（但）这是在华社传达我们的价值观的好机会。" 与此同时，南西还表示他计划更多支持华社的基层民众，并希望让国会听到来自基层的声音。
D | "他们是绿党希望与之互动的，我们希望在国家的层面，放大他们的声音，" 他表示。"我是指亚洲超市的工人们，华社有很多人在餐饮、零售和清洁等服务行业。还有华社的彩虹社区、残障社区，他们的声音在哪里？我非常愿意为这些人寻求最佳的方案。
E | " 绿党联合党魁Marama Davidson为南西成为国会首位绿党华人国会议员感到自豪。 她说："Lawrence会成为一名出色的国会议员，他会让新西兰以及我们了不起的华人社区感到自豪。" 南西正式进入国会对华社来说也是一个重要的里程碑，这标志着首次有3名华人议员进入国会。
